If one stands in Huntly square you
see the horizon in each direction
Jonathan is a self-taught artist based in Aberdeen, specialising in land art. He was in residency with us in 2001.
Jonathan reconciles nature and language in his work as a land artist – creating images of the town that depict words, the horizon and the skyline of the town. His work follows the typology of a horizontal line, with the horizon potently symbolising the illusion of separation. This is the division between sky and earth, between the human realm and that of ideals, though this 'line' is all a matter of perspective.
